Couple of things that i didn't expect, I didn't see on the "Central" lines a single first liveried 156 - have the painted any non-SPT units are just (un)lucky.

Plenty of units still in First ScotRail livery - all the former SPT units in ScotRail livery now though:

Yeah the line Between Kilmarnock and Barrhead is a good detour .
There should be a 1 day Central Scotland Rover.:p

I went up and did a roundabout today. Did most of what I wanted to do. Arrived at Central and had the 1st hour on the Cathcart circle and Neilston line getting my last 2 314's. Then upto Partick and onto the subway for half an hour, then spent the afternoon going in and out of Queen St, going to Anniesland, Cumbernauld and Croy, scoring 2 158's and 2 170's. Also got my last 2 subway cars aswell.

Might do a daytripper next time so I can go abit further.

I can see a lot of people going for this option once the A2B opens
Taking a Daytripper from Helensburgh to Airdrie, then purchasing an Off-Peak Day Return between Airdrie and Edinburgh (Drumgelloch is same fare, so makes no difference)

Equally, combining the Central Scotland Rover, and Off-Peak Day Return betweeen Glasgow QS and Helensburgh (sadly a Roundabout does not save any money, but could also be used as an option to return via Glasgow Central / thus Dalreoch - Helensburgh)
